Very sophisticated prhasing in that solo of his.
-
The other tenor player who is to the right of DIck Oattes is Munich's Roman Schwaller I believe. How he landed on that stage, on that gig I have no idea. But he is one of the best soloists in Europe.
As far as all these mindless observations made in here, mocking what they look like when they play, etc. I guess that is why they are the monster players and you are trolls.

Loses a stick at 1:34 and has another one out like a magician. Nice.
-
@ZackPomerleau It's a shadow of the microphone directly to Mel's right ~
-
What is on his snare?
-
@pektus5 I agree. If you want to hear the best sounding drums by Mel that I've heard to date, get his CD called "Naturally".
The drum solo at the end of "Cherry Juice" is absolute perfection, and his drums sound incredible. Also, his DVD "Live at the Smithsonian" shows off his great sounding Slingerlands.
By the way, Mel is my favorite drummer/musician. He was absolutely amazing. Too bad he never got the recognition guys like Buddy and Louie did.
But, his bands were nothing short of superb ~

@lanceflatul so what?
-
Are you kidding? The alto sax looks like he's taking a dump right on stage. Comedic.
-
The alto and tenor player to the right look like they're going to spaz out, or have suffered hernia's. No wonder my ex use to laugh at jazz soloists. Some of them look like like they've got "ants in their pants". I don't think I've ever looked that funny improvising on stage. At least no one told me. Ha! Ha!
